erless to stem the work of the corrupt
land ring dominating Northern Pacific
affairs, which Willard is determined to
wipe out. The retirement of Vice Presl-
dent Oakes and President Harris are the
next steps promised. The land ring of
the Northern Pacific is one of the most
corrupt concerns that ever fastened its
fangs on the throat of a territory. Emf
grants have been prohibited from settling
along the line of the road IN order to pro-
vide large tracts for speculation. Willard
IS said to grow more indignant every day;
as he examines into affairs and finds to
what an enormous extent the road has
been cheated out of contiguous popula-
ton. Negotiations for the consolidation
of the Northern Pacific and Wisconsin
Central railways are now in rapid progress.
A through line from Chicago to the Pa
cifc will soon be arranged. The consoli-
dation is great blow at many of the
Northwestern's interests and it is intimat-
ed that the tour of Chauncey M. Depew
has something to do with Vanderbilt in
terests, which are somewhat disturbed by
the threatened swallowing of its through
traffic by the Wisconsin Central.

Mining in Arctic Regions.


Alaska Free Press: Owing to heavy
mating of moss that covers the ground
on Forty Mile creek, and in fact nearly
the entire Yukon country, back few
feet from running water the gravel is
frozen, and although it is rich in gold.
it cannot be worked. During the sum-
mer months this moss becomes dry to a
depth of several inches, and the miners
have taken advantage of this and are
trying to burn it off, SO as to expose the
gravel underneath to the suns rays.
Thus the first burning consumes it
down to certain depth, and when it is
exposed to the sun and atmosphere for
few weeks, it is again set on fire. By
this method it is thought that in cou-
pie Of seasons a vast amount of now
frozen gravel will be thawed out sutfic-
lent for washing. All the gold so far
taken out this season was from bars
lying along the streams, and they could
not be worked further back than four
feet, where they encountered frozen
ground, and so hard that it could not be
picked out, and powder for blasting was
thing not to be obtained ir. the coun-
try. It is, without the aid of powder,
an impossibility to reach bedrock on the
deeper and richer bars. With so much
coarse gold on the surface, one wonders
whether or not it cannot be shoveled
out when bedrock is once reached. AT
Juneau, Alaska, the Union Mining
company is erecting an eighty-stamp
quartz mill, with full capacity of 100
stamps, to work one of the great gold
ledges at that point.

The Effects of Mental Exhaustion.

Many diseases, especially those of the ner-
vous system, are the products of daily re-
newed mental exhaustion. Business avoca-
tons involve large amount of mental
wear and tear very prejudicial TO physical
health, and the professions if arduously
pursued, are no less destructive to brain and
nerve tissue. 1t is one of the most i'm
portant attributes Of Hostettcrs Stomach
Bitters, that it compcnsates for this undue
loss Of tissue, and that it imparts new energy
to the brain and nerves The rapidity with
which II renews weakened mental energy and
physical vitality is remarkable and shows
that its invigorating properties are of the
highest order. Besides increasing vital
stamina, and counteracting the effects of
mental exhaustion, this potential medicine
cures and prevents fever, ague, rheumatism
chronic dyspepsia and constipation, kidney
and uterine weakness and other complaints.
Physicians also commend II as a medicatcd
stimulant and remedy.

The Antelope valley Of North pa'
kofa


For the first ten or twelve miles after
leaving Rugby Junction, That thriving
town where the Manitoba road forks, one
line going toward the Turtle Mountains
aud the other vending ils way Paciticwards
passed along up the Antelope Valley.
And right here, let me say, that l cannot
refrain from giving you something more
than mere glimpse of this region. To
our left some six or seven miles distant,
are the tmbered slopes of the Mouse River
hills, the stockmen's ranges, while stretch.
ing far away behind us aud for several
miles in front, is the fertile basin of deep,
black soil, known as the Antelope valley.
I he land is evidently of the best char
acter, perfectly free from alkali and having
ample natural drainage. Now that the
Minneapolis 81 Manitoba Railway passes
through the center of this vally, and a
large and growing town supplies a good
home market. immigration will doubtless
increase rapidly The settlers nearly all
live in sod houses and are 'industrious and
enierprising. Lest should be misunder-
stood, let me say that sod house, instead
of being put up merely because it is so
cheap, is often erected by quite well to do
farmers, who see in buildings an invest
ment which returns no interest while the
same amount invested here in stock
will soon double. Again. sod houses are
often the most comfortable of dwellings,
aud when well built seem to add attrac-
ton TO the landscape, while the prclentious
frame structure would often be out of
place amid this beautiful scenery.
One thing which | could not fail to Oh
serve was that the settlers here are all very
proud of their valley, and sound its praises
in unlimited terms. 1t is natural for men
to think well OF Their chosen home and
consequently. for one 10 make liberal al
lowance for stretches of the narrators i'm
aglnaton. However there is no "skelet-
on in the closet" in Antelope valley. Here
is long, wide area OF splendid, rich soil,
upon which the tame grasses would grow
in profusion, making this an excellent field
for the operations of diversified farming
The present is emphatically the time to
secure lands in the Antelope valley There
are plenty of homesteads, preemptops and
tree claims awaiting the action of the set
tier, in order to become u great agricultu
raj region. Certainly, here is rich field
for men OF limited means and unlimited
days works, 10 become prosperous land
holders. Lands can be had within short
distance of the st Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railway. for nothing more than
The taking. Probably there is no such
large body of very fertile soil in the United
States that is so accessible to transporta-
ton. and possessing so many and varied
attractions of soil and location, as this An
telope valley, on the Devils Lake division
of the Manitoba road.-St. Paul Globe.

Our wealthy Men.

Much has been said in newspapers
of men who have made large for
tunes IN comparatively few years
in various business industries. Many
of these articles are written by cor
respondents Of prominent news
papers, and copied into others of less
er note. Correspondents generally
are seldom men Of business qualifica-
tons and wrongfully picture these
men and their business asa thing of
accident; this is not the case with
those we have met. We find that
where men have made large fortunes
by their own business talent and in
dustry they chose with sagacity and
forethought such businesses as would
lead TO success when handled with
business Judgment No man has
been brought before the public as an
